Yup, after 2 years of my T3 finally got myself a tsport. picking it up on wednesday.

Got a few things ordered for it already (still trying to decide what wind deflectors... any recomendations?).

Anyway any things I should look out for when picking it up? I know there are a few issues with the clutch judder etc.

Its a Phase 2 2005 model. (i pref them to phase 1! dont care that majority dont! lol)

I tried to track down a blue one... but could only find a 5 door (which is cool but jsut outa my price range) so going with the bandwagon of a thunder grey one!

will keep up to date with the things im doing to it i exspect... lol

im still slightly annoided atm, had a really nice drive with it yesterday, but its still pulling to the left slightly, its not as bad as it was, its just very annoying, and could be dangerous, ill have to take it back in soon. grrr. shame as that is the only thing thats wrong with it, everything else is perfect!

absolutly love it!

If you want wind deflectors go for genuine toyota ones, they look better than the cheap eBay ones in my opinion.

Ive had my balancing and tracking done twice now and mine still pulls, the wheel also starts to vibrate/shake as i go past a certain speed...

i have exactly that... lol yeh "certain speed". bit annoying, but its been alot better since it came back from toyota... and i sorted the tyre pressures properly lol! its really not that bad now...

apprently all cars should pull the left slight as a safety feature (obviously not loads very minmal) incase you fall asleep, have a heart attack etc, to stop the car from going into oncoming traffic... dunno if thats true though... makes sense!

Suppose it does make sense, before i had mine dont it was like it was taking a left hand turn when i let go of the wheel!! Lol it was really bad!

Yeah u like that...'Certain Speed' im guessing yours is the same, thing is it scares the hell out of me and makes me slow down,

I might have to coem have an eye spy on your car at some point!!! hehe!!!
